Anti-Abuse Team Weekly Report #34
Friday - April 27th - 2018
Well, I have actually managed to get this out on Friday this time. Small miracles. Mostly just a statistics update as there hasn't been a huge change or anything major to talk about yet.
The details of this weeks prune of the member-list -
- 17937 Members before this week's prune was run. (599 new accounts since last week)
- 30 Day Prune has removed 257 dead accounts. (69 more were removed this Prune.)
- This leaves our count at 17680 Members after the prune.
- ~1300 Peak Concurrent users this week. (Network stability and recent crack-down on multi-account abuse.)
Updated stats on Bans and Blacklist -
- 3243 Discord bans (+77 new from previous)
- 3935 accounts in total are now Blacklisted by @minnowsupport (+118 from previous!)
The Charts
Member count data over time:
This shows the trend of members gained over time. I use the number of users counted after each purge each week.
Blacklist Counts by Type:
This gives a breakdown of the major categories we list an account under in our Blacklist.
In summary:
Still gaining new members each week, just nowhere as quickly as we were around Q4 2017 into Q1 2018.
A quick review of things that get you blacklisted:
- A single image or even multiple images, with very little text or only a basic bit of information with it.
- An embedded YouTube or DTube video with zero additions to the post that provide value.
- Attempting to gain multiple upvotes outside our 1 per cool-down by any means.
- Any major violation of our community guidelines and rules. (This usually has to do with treatment of other users on the platform.)
Not all of these result in a ban from Discord since we want you to learn and improve.
Check out this post for more information.
Here is to hoping for 2018 to bring in new and exciting things.
